Nette One-Time Erfahrung

Hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht. Mehr als die 25 Minuten müssen aber aus unserer Sicht nicht sein. ;-)

Awesome fun ride

Took our 3 year old grandson on it for first time. We loved it. Was just the right amount of time for him to be on it. Kept informed of any changes and felt very welcomed.
